A datapack that turns magenta glazed terracotta into item conveyors, allowing items to be transported automatically across blocks.
Simple Conveyors
Overview
Simple Conveyors is a lightweight Minecraft datapack that turns Magenta Glazed Terracotta into functional item conveyors. When items are dropped onto a conveyor block, they are automatically pushed in the direction the terracotta arrow is facing. This allows you to build simple transport lines for items without using redstone, water, or any additional blocks.
The system is designed to be vanilla-friendly and easy to use. You only need to place Magenta Glazed Terracotta and orient it correctly. Items will then move smoothly across connected conveyor paths, making it useful for farms, storage systems, sorting setups, and compact automation builds.
Because it reuses an existing block, the datapack blends naturally into survival and creative worlds. It focuses on simplicity and fast setup, so players can quickly create working item transport systems without learning complex mechanics.
